Aoi Bungaku Series (青い文学シリーズ, "Blue Literature Series") is a twelve episode Japanese anime series featuring adaptations inspired by six short stories from Japanese literature. The six stories are adapted from classic Japanese tales. Happinet, Hakuhodo DY Media Partners, McRAY, MTI, Threelight Holdings, Movic, and Visionare were involved in the production of the series. Character designs were provided by manga artists Takeshi Obata (#1–4, 7–8), Tite Kubo (#5–6, 11, 12) and Takeshi Konomi (#9–10).[1] The stories adapted here may stray away significantly from the original plot of the classics, even if they try to capture the essence of the stories.[2] There are some titbits told by the host Sakai Masato about the background of the story before the animation starts.
